- This is Part 1 of a multi part series of videos taken on July 24th 2020, from an empty coaching stock train 5Z11, 1043 Crewe DHS - Bristol Temple Meads which was run by Locomotive Services LTD. The route was via Shrewsbury - Hereford and that marvel of engineering the Severn Tunnel. There was quite an amount of in cab talking which has been muted out but there is still some very nice horn tones etc from the loco 47805. This is part one departing from Crewe Down Holding Sidings to Shrewsbury.

I have just switched over to the Go Pro 8 Camera and as you have seen the footage is awesome.

The HD is really something
Good to see some things haven't changed much in over 60 years! A few new houses, some overhead stuff going on and perhaps a new bridge or two, but Shropshire as I remember it in 1959
seen from the footplate of the City of Truro, overnighting in Shrewsbury sheds, and courtesy of the driver Harold Bevan (my uncle) and fireman Mike - two great men of steam and sadly missed.
Thankful to this channel as I could see the full train journey from Crewey to Shrewsbury via sacred Whitechurch
Shrewsbury, a signal enthusiast's paradise. Fantastic to see a big station still fully semaphore-controlled, and those signal boxes are something else! Can't wait to look at the next episode.
Thank you from New Zealand for an enthralling "first episode". Brings back great memories of my childhood near Shrewsbury particularly of train spotting at Condover. Looking forward to "episode 2"
Glad you enjoyed it
When I was a kid I used to watch the trains from the bridge near the quarry in bayston hill. Saw some good locos from that bridge, mainly 37s and 47s.
J'attends la partie 2 avec impatience... et le son en plus. Reportage magnifique en UHD.
Same "station" ,possibly different time, for next enthralling episode. Thanks RailMart.
Ein gutes Video. Ausgezeichnet!!. Wir warten auf die nächsten Teile. Danke.
I see the 45 slack is still present for Newcastle AHB. I wonder when network rail will get around to changing it to a PSR.
Shropshire is so beautiful!
Isn't it just.
You are doing a good job with your videos ,and it's better still in UHD ,I shall follow this series because you are coming into my area . Keep it going .
Thanks, will do!
Will be watching the remaining episodes. I was surprised to see such extensive lengths of unfenced track; very unusual for Britain. I'm not British.
Excellent picture quality. The high frame rate (60fps) is ideally suited to this kind of film.
Anything Less is rubbish.
Another great video. One thing you are guaranteed to see in just about every UK cab ride video - the fireweed alongside the tracks. 🐨🇦🇺
Good point!
A.k.a.rosebay willow herb .
Pleased to see Crewe bank loop and Signal box are still there. Harlescot crossing to Shrewsbury station was part of our gangs patch. Lots more weeds about, since I left in 1995 lol.
Really enjoyed this, looking fwd to part 2,,, our patch stopped at the Viaduct.
👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it.
A great day out,cheer's bob.
Big sky!!! .....Awesome!
Cracking! Hopefully you can do a Westbury to Taunton video one day 👍🏻
I did it 3 years ago on a HST but the vibration was so bad off the Power unit through the power car the footage was dreadful.
excellent thanks, amazing video quality. Have you considered taking sound track from unmanned rear cab, like the Hastings Diesel guys do, presumably with a radio mic? Wd save the editing in and out. v enjoyable vid.
I'll check it out
One day we are going to need to preserve these great old signals, or they will just get cut-up on the spot. Perhaps Didcot could 'plant' some of the impressive ones on one of the picnic areas, and have a 'signal park'. :-)
Does the sound keep dropping out ?
I love cab view videos and yours are some of the best. I hope you get the chance to film some freight only lines, that would be epic.
Trying to suss my bearings on the starting point only really knowing where the station and diesel depot are......
Why does the electrification carry on on one side but not the other when it ends?
You know you're in Great Britain when you find lengths of discarded rail littering the right-of-way . . . there's enough scrap steel between and beside the rails to build a line to New York, if that were possible. Nice, sharp video --- too bad about the sound having to be muted so frequently.
Scrap is usually in the Cess ready for collection... anything between the running rails has normally been placed strategically either by RDT or OTP for either emergency defect removal or major re-railing.
Really good, for a few minutes, I don't know why but I hate watching stuff that's got sound jumping in and out. Sorry
Sorry about that. The reasons for which are given.
@@RailMart Yeah I understand it, I don't know why it bothers me, the footage itself is good though, the Welsh Marches line is a very scenic line :)
Well filmed without annoying music and commentary
What sound there was kept cutting in and out and very quiet...
Do you know what the 47 was hauling?
10 Mk1 and Mk2 coaches.
why do you not show disused staions/juncs as you pass their site, as I check my 1947 map (by Ian Allen) as your film progress down the route. which are very enjoyable.
Hi. It's a matter purely of available time. I do this as a hobby. Editing video is very time consuming and I have to draw a line somewhere. Also it can be fun for the viewer to try and spot them for themselves.
@@RailMart I do that but the speed of train somtimes gets me wrong
Great vid - thanks
Is this line controlled by in-cab signalling or some type of ETCS - there seems to be a long distance between any trackside signals?
No its all original absolute block.
Is there a disused station at 16.04?
The map I use does not show one.
@@RailMart Ok. Thanks.
Take your seats, close all doors...
Had to watch sound off. Loosing the plot with sound in and out spoilt things, but silent a VVG! Looking forward to next parts
Other vid of this much better...Here the semaphores all ripped up inc signal boxes..this is all modern and also the sound is very low or silent...Only watched till Nantwich...
Signalled from Cardiff lol
